My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.Proverbs 1:8, 9 As we come into the season on honoring Mothers it was impressed upon me the importance of the relationship between mother and Son. The wisdom of God provides us with the illustration of the creation mandate in reference to the position of our parents. Proverbs chapter 1 v 8 refers to the beauty of the creator and how useful each one of us is in his creation. It is mom who sets in place the foundation of the laws which govern the manner of how we keep our instruction. She sets forth the protocol needed to keep us boys and men in the loop concerning the very delicate balance necessary to suffer the difficulties in our relationships at work, with our wives, girlfriends, sisters, cousins and so on. Although we live in a season where Dad is either invisible or estranged it can become very challenging for mom to position herself as both lawgiver and instructor.As we honor our mothers this season lets not loose sight of the importance they have in our lives. Their input and love determines the manner in which we will navigate the difficulties that are associated with the seasons of our lives. I was reminded by the spirit of God that part of the blessing is imparted in us when we are able to mourn (Matthew 5:4)In that verse in Matthew Chapter 5 it concludes with the term “comforted” . God can not comfort us unless we present the truth concerning our troubles. Mom always had a way at getting at that truth.Encourage your mothers today. It’s okay to wear the tag “Mama’s Boy”. It is that love that presents the glory of God in our lives each day. Amen

Bio

Born August 3, 1960 in Newark, New Jersey to Hezekiah and Miriam Crudup the 5th oldest of 10. As a child there was a great love to copy art from comic books and other materials. Over the years this developed a creative . that led Anthony to pursue drawing with great love and affection. After graduating from West Side High School in Newark, New Jersey he attended the University of Minnesota with a major in Journalism and Communications a minor in Fine Arts.. It was during this time he developed a great affection towards the creative and its effects on the soul.. during the late 8o's and early 90's he began to wane and his interest for art took a back seat to financial dysfunction and social and spiritual unrest. during this period Anthony surrendered to his Lord and King Jesus Christ and began the process of healing that allowed and presented him with the freedom to become more expressive,hence developing a style quite unique to him. Currently He is beginning to form into one of the most expressive and prolific artist of his time. It is with the assurance and the Love of Jesus that complels him to look forward to a future of creative and spiritual excellence that will become a blessing to his brothers and sisters in Christ and to the world.

Anthony and Emmanuel Crudup

Outside of my love for Jesus Christ my greatest inspiration is my son Emmanuel James Crudup.His passion for life inspires me to strive for greatness. Amen

Artist Statement

Heart of the Fathers is a blog created by the Artist Anthony Crudup of Mirhez Images to encourage the hearts of Fathers into the lives of their children.(Malachi 4:6) As a father the relationship I had with the mother of my son discouraged me from encouraging the life of my son. It hindered me from receiving the power of God in my life. It robbed me from living responsibly concerning the life of my son. Today I'm encourage not by the relationship with his mother but by my relationship with God the Father through the Lord Jesus the Christ. It is in that relationship and authority that I choose to live in order for my seed to live and prosper.(Deuteronomy 30:19) Amen.
